Christ and Why? (work started June-04-20?10, 12:52:36 PM)
It is my goal with this writing to list the essential moral fundamentals of christianity,as I know them in my limited insight and understanding. I'd like to take this moral system thatwe already have, improve it, then use it everywhere. [So after each moral maxim listed in order,I will write my own ideas on that moral principal.] Some people are scared of this idea. Theywere taught that the bible should never be altered or misapplied. I promise you that the handsof the bible's writers were human hands. Imperfect hands, seeking perfection but ultimatelyhow perfect could they be? I've found errors in christian theories, and there is much contreversyabout christianity. Let's just remember Christ. What if Christ was more important than the bible?
Some people teach of God's anger towards the unrighteous. The bible teaches that sometimes Godkills people. Why did God create them in the first place if they are all just dieing and beingkilled and fading away? But what about Jesus? I think Jesus was very patient. He didn't evenget angry at the people that killed him. Jesus never killed anybody. When he met the man whohad legions of demons possessing him, Jesus didn't even kill those demons, he let them enterinto a bunch of pigs for some reason. Who knows, maybe they were all bad souls that neededbodies? Maybe Jesus even respected sinners? I think Jesus loved sinners, and wanted to sacrificehis life in order to heal sin itself. Jesus's forgiveness, patience and non-violance,does not equate exactly with a jealous and vengeful God. Jesus said he who has seen me hasseen the father also. Is God our master, are we his slaves, or are we God's children? Aschildren, don't we deserve our inheritance? Don't we deserve to be nurtured and improved?
I believe in spirits. I'm pretty sure that i've met angels, demons, and the Somaras.Somaras say that Christ is a real spirit, no matter whether the story of Jesus in thebible was entirely true. Somaras say that Christ is one of the top allies in The Council.The Council is a group of higher beings and "gods" which are all allied and they talkand interact allot and help eachother. Maybe you will some day have the chance to bea member of The Council? They allow lower beings to help. Everyone is valuable andwelcome to help. Somaras say that there is more than one Christ. Divine savior typespirits exist as more than one. Somaras say that all of the good gods deserve infiniterespect.
Is it wrong or foolish on our part to think so much about the gods that we forgetabout the earth? We need balance. Man needs the earth. What if the earth needs man?What if we need the earth more than we need God? Imagine if you stopped eating,and asked God to nourish you. You'd die of starvation. What if the earth was betterthan God? [At least better for us, or better in some way. maybe?] Humanity mayhave made a great mistake, if the earth is better for us than God.
I have a hard time believing in 'God's promises. For example the plagues in egypt,did that really have any archeological evidence? I was raised a Jehovah's witnessfor most of my life. I changed my mind but it's been a big thing for me, and theyteach bible literalism. They tried to teach me every detail about the bible, theycall it "The Truth", that's the name they give it. When the God made the sunstand still, why didn't other civilizations and cultures make some record ofthat unusual and supernatural event? Ok I'll try to summarize christian morality:
It's wrong to:Steel, desire what you shouldn't have or do, lie [usually], kill people,hurt people, disrespect God in words actions or thoughts, speak badlyabout good people, harm in general is said to be wrong, focusing toomuch on riches and not enough on goodness God or bible stuff, so basicallysome forms of imbalance are at least considered wrong/sin, over-eating,idol worship, false religions/religions other than christianity's certaindenomination, abortion, deviant forms of sex, maybe masterbation,magick practices, sex out of marriage, swearing and impoliteness.
Ok that's all I can think of.
It's good to:Love the worthy and the needy but don't love the wrongs, cherish andappreciate nature in general all of God's good creations, forgivethose willing to change and seeking to correct their mistakes becauseGod is the judge we aren't perfect enough to judge right all the time,obey God's various ideas obediance in general to that, help humanityin general, show some degree of mercy for animals but still you cantreat them as slaves basically, in eden adam was told to take careof it so ecology is one thing that can be a christian moral oblegation,peace non-violence in general.
Ok that's all I can think of for now.
Let's go through each of these, first the wrongs:
Steeling:Somaras say it's ok to steel a little bit from people solong as it doesn't majorly hurt them, if they are kind of assholes.It's ok to steel and harm bad beings and dead neutral things,but it's not always an oblegation to steel from or degrade enemies;sometimes we are obligated to steel from the rich wicked. So that'sit as far as my understanding about that issue related to what the Somarasmajorly think about it.We are constantly taking things that we didn't create or entirely earn.We take the chicken's eggs. We take the animals life even if the animaldoesn't want to die. Animals take things too, without asking. Everyoneis taking and using, to live and for pleasure, and sometimes just beacuse.Christianity says God gave humanity all of the earth and animals to use.I don't agree. I think that humans are animals too. I like that atheistthought that we are all animals and came from animals. It seems morefair and more realistic. There may be such a thing as necissary evils,like we have to eat and shit even if it hurts someone, because we haveto."Steeling" to me mains, removing substance or territory without concent.If God owns everything can we steel from God? I don't like having totake things just to live, but I do it, it's so common that it's considerednormal and morally ok. Maybe if everyone could agree on it, it wouldtruly be ok, at least to us. Anyways, I don't really like steeling.If we didn't have to take things from people, we could be independant,self sufficient, and as demi would say, that would make us better andmore free, and more god-like. Therefor I teach that we as beings shouldseek to become less parasitic and more independant.I think the christian meaning of the word bad "theft", is when youremove something from someone's range of influence that they neededfor life or for happiness. They think loss of good in someone's lifeis bad, therefor theft is bad. We also have natural instincts abouttheft and territory. I think it's a natural mental personality tratefor us to want things and not want things to be taken away.
Desire what you should't have or do:Bad thoughts preceed bad actions, so essentially this christianidea makes sense, I guess. Somaras teach that we can take baddesires and learn from them. We need to understand and feel evilbefore we can create a system that can remedy evil. So, as theSomaras say, good can be derived out of bad. I think we can't alwayschoose or control or desires. In a sense we are victims of ourown nature. I believe we can pitty an evil person, because hisexistence is ruined by the bad parts of it which spoil the whole.For me this expands on mercy as a concept. I say evil desire isa wretched disease but not everyone wants a cure for this becauseit's a disease of the will and the wanting. It's a disease thatruins freedom. I think Somaras agree with me about that, thatbad desire is like a disease.
Lieing:I believe that Neitszche basically once said, that in society, inthe human experience, we are expected to lie sometimes, and believein lies often [like in politics or religion], but as soon as a liehurts somebody and they realize it, all of a sudden, lies are evil.I agree with that. I think lies can be good or bad. Lies are basicallythoughts which don't perfectly reflect reality. But thoughts canstill have good or bad effects even if they aren't reflecting realityperfectly. I think the christian position is : lieing on purposeis a sin, but not knowing the truth and saying wrong stuff ignorantlyisn't exactly a sin, it's more like a mistake and an accident. Ican basically agree with that, too. Somaras say that lies are almostalways inefficient.
Killing people:Christianity says people killing people is usually wrong, but sometimesGod killed people and that was righteous. Christians believe in punishment.I don't think punishment is perfect or the best possible system foralways dealing with things. I have been told that a human body absorbsa balance of positive and negative energy and a percent of that energyis absorbed then elevated around the soul transmuted into higher consciousnesswhich is then absorbed by the soul. Also the astral eminations of aphysical body feed the will and somewhat enhance some of the higherlevels of a typical multidimensional human organism. More often thannot, as a physical human body of flesh exists, it generates and effectsthings in a way that is typically more good than bad. This principalalso applies to animals. Somaras say they usually love humans.Because of all this, I think that killing people is basically wrong,and killing animals is also basically wrong, because it's a wasteof higher systems which produce some sublime levels of consciousness.
Hurt people:I think harming any being is more-often-than-not, a waste.
Disrespect God in words actions or thoughts:I respect Christ more than I respect Jehovah. I am kindof scared ofJehovah I hope he's not too mad. Christianity teaches that God createdall good and gave us everything that we have, therefor we should deeplyrespect God at all times and appreciate God deeply at all times. Wellif God really did make everything, then I think derivative badnessalso has an ultimate sourcing with God. Therefor if that's the cause,I think God is an imperfect fuck up, but he needs allot of help andimprovement from everybody and everything. If I was God, I'd wantsome love and respect, but I wouldn't get angry at people disrespectingme, I would be like : "Poor insect, I'm sorry that you fill your mindwith disrespect and hate. You are impoverished and you are wastingyour meager life's time with such nonsense." Imagine if that wasactually how God thought? It's possible, maybe. I think that toomuch respect is dangerous, and we need to balance it with a bitof cinicism and comedy. Does God have a butthole? Hahah, like that.We can't be shaking in fear and totally be obssesed with God'spleandor, that would be blinding... on the other hand, maybe thatwould be a great and wonderful blindness beyond the meager andnarrow accomplishments of sight? There's also a chance that Godis so high and so smart that he ignores insignificant humanthoughts almost completely. That's not christian but I thinkit's a possability.
Speak badly of good people:That's kindof like harm, harming someone's image and credability,leading to a social loss of resources. Yea that's a shit. Next.
Is imbalance or guttony a sin?I think it can be inefficient, or harmful, but is it really badwhen a person hurts themself? It's a waste, but should it bepunished, or even feared, or hated? I think we shouldn't be scaredof death and madness. We should look far beyond such tiny specks,to the glorious heights of the never-ending beauty of positivepossabilities. I don't think God hates fat people lol. ImagineJesus frowning in contempt at a fat man. No, I don't think so.Let's just face it, being fat and eating allot isn't reallya big sin. Maybe the whole no-gluttony thing is more Jehovah's Witnessthan it is Christian. I'm not sure. Maybe it's arrogant to everjudge the poverty of error as truly bad. If we overflow withincomprehensibly vast amounts of goodness, maybe, just maby,bad and evil would disappear from our sight, and we would understandbeyond the frail costructs known as "evil"? Imagine an InvincibleGod beyond pain and aversion, impossible to be annoyed even slightly!It's possible. Maybe christianity made a big mistake and God nevergets upset?
Idol worship:Hopefully when some people bow down at a big statue of the buddha,they are trying to honor what that idol symbolizes, instead ofworshipping the gold and rock. By they way, I don't think mostbuddhists are worshippy. I'm talking about a rare kind of what-if,it's almost a joke really. Some christians think that God isinsulted when we worship in a way that he didn't want, deviatingaway from God's plans. I'd hope that God was beyond jealousy.I hope God is never offended. If I was God, I would try to stayreally calm and peaceful and not get mad at poor little creations.I think idol worship is a bit misguided, and stupid, but I don'tthink it's a sin, unless being stupid and foolish is a sin, butI think foolishness is kindof harmless and suicidal nonsense.I'm not scared of foolishness, unless it starts to harm me.
False religions/religions other than christianity's certain denomination:I view false religion as a mistake, not a sin. Not always a mistake,like circumcision, what a fucking disgrace! But basically, I see"false religion" as a mistake, a tiny world in which pure and unbeautifulpeople reside. JWs teach that false religion is satanic. No I don'tagree. I don't think Satan is controlling allot. I think the Somarasagree with me on what I said.
Abortion:Is killing a seed like killing a tree? Is killing the young as badas killing the old? What's God's view on all of that? I wish I knew.I don't find abortion appealing. Somaras say : "All children andbabies should be born into the highest greatest most perfect worldof infinite positive capacity." I say : What about wasting cumand egg cells? They say "Don't waste a single drop." What aboutoverpopulation, can human death be an ultimately necissary andgood thing sometimes? Somaras say : "Sadly, yes, in some ways."Somaras say abortion should be illegal. I guess I agree.
Deviant forms of sex, masterbation, unmarried sex:This is one of my few disagreements in christian morality. I canagree with allot of things in christian virtue. But what's so badabout the potentially hightened pleasure of sex outside of thevaginal class? Somaras do all kinds of crazy and wild yiff. Ithink interspecies yiff can be great sometimes, too. Yiff!Maybe sex is so holy that it has nothing to do with pleasure?But then why is it so pleasurable? No, I think pleasure is art.Art should be free and experimental. Art can be amoral.So we have a disagreement. Christians say no gays. I saygays are hot hot hot! Using your yiff organs is good. It'slike exersizing a muscle, it's healthy in moderation. Cheatingcan offend some types of people so it's definitely not alwaysideal for everybody, but I believe in Free Love. Loyalty isgood, even sexual loyalty, but jealousy I think is bad.
Magick:That's a difficult generalization. What if being alive involvesmagick energies and events? I think Magick is almost always Good!So there, I disagreed with christianity stuff. Maybe... Well,I think Jesus and angels use white magick. Jesus used higherenergy to heal people and help them. So did apostles. Thereare some christian mages but they are rare. Witch-burningwasn't entirely biblical but there are commandments sayingno practicer of magick bla bla bla. Well I think magick is great,so there.
Swearing and impoliteness:Let's not be petty, that would be fucky. Fuck that.
Wow that didn't take as long as I thought it would take.Did I just cover all of the basics of christian-don'ts inthe generalization of christian morality? I hope so.
Let's go through each of these, next the goods:
Love the worthy and the needy but don't love the wrongs:I agree basically but I think if you gived enough love to a bad personthey would be at least a little bit better.
Cherish and appreciate nature in general all of God's good creations:Agreed.
Forgive those willing to change and seeking to correct their mistakes becauseGod is the judge we aren't perfect enough to judge right all the time:Hmh. What would happen if we forgive All? Are we affraid to forgive All?Does revenge heal us? Does hate save and protect us from evil? What wouldthe world be like of we forgave All? What if God's decition processes werebeyond and more advanced than the simplicities of human ideas of judgement?I think that the christian God usually banishes bad souls instead ofkilling or attacking them. He traps them and leaves them alone, to doas they wish. I might be wrong, but that's what my visions seem to depictlately. There are also fake gods that pretend to be the Creator, andsome of them have hells and slaves, but they aren't that big there isn'tvery many of them. I asked Somaras, they said : "Forgive almost all,but never forget anything. Forgive the love that was denied the wrathfulchildren of the earth. But remember that there is someone who has fuckedwith you and they should be used to undo the damage." I think that forgivenesscan be a useful tool, more useful than revenge. So I basically agree withchristian forgiveness.
Obey God's various ideas obediance in general to that:I don't know about obediance par se but I believe we can come to an agreement.Rules need explanations and reasons, a valid and good foundational basis.Imagine if there was a god that loved both good and evil? Well I say if theideas are reasonable and good, then it's good to assimilate them into our lives.
Help humanity in general:Big YES. You apes need some serious improvement.
Show some degree of mercy for animals but still you can treat them as slaves basically:I think according to darwinism, we owe our lives to animals. We came from animals.Animals are our creators, our ancestors, our brothers, we are animals. We all sharea high level of genetic similarity. I can agree with that. I don't think animalcruelty is ok.
In eden adam was told to take care of it so ecology is one thing thatcan be a christian moral oblegation:Well I don't believe in Adam and Eve literally but I like ecology. Ecology hasn'treally been a big thing in christianity, but, I say that when God charged Adamand Eve and some angels to look after the garden of eden, that means that ecologycan be or should be a part of christian moral culture. Also the scripture "God willbring to ruin those ruining the earth." It means God doesn't want us to destroyor waste what He created. Well I think most of nature is kindof precious, sacred,and all potentailly useful for a certain kind of beings.
Peace non-violence in general:Living in a world without harm or danger is a eutopian ideal of which I love toentertain. But in Nature I believe there is always some degree of conflicting forces,some degree of wars between races and groups. So I believe we should all learn howto fight after it is sure that we are good and virtueous, whilst the bad people shouldnot be given the gift of weapons and a means to war. The most righteous shouldhold the best weapons and use them mainly defensively in order to protect value.Some forms of violence like fighting tournaments is awsome but we must be carefuland master the proficient and harmonious art of destruction-for-good.
This concludes a summary of some of my own moral system, and my understanding ofthe main points of christian morality in humanity today. I hope that you have learnedsomething and enjoyed reading this.
